The mother of slain American photojournalist James Foley — who was beheaded by Islamic State barbarians — says that the Alabama “ISIS bride” now begging to come home should be “brought to justice.”
Hoda Muthana “and the many thousands of ISIS fighters who have promoted terrorism need to be held accountable and brought to justice,” Foley’s mom, Diana Foley, told “Your World” on Fox News Tuesday. “I feel that is vital.”
Diana expressed some compassion for 24-year-old Muthana, who fled from her home in Hoover, Ala., in 2014 to join the terror group in Syria, where she married three ISIS fighters.
Several weeks ago, Muthana — who urged Twitter followers to commit massacres at parades back home — fled ISIS’ last stronghold with her 18-month-old son and was captured by Kurdish forces, who brought her to a refugee camp.
“Certainly as a Christian we all make mistakes and need to consider forgiveness, particularly for her young child who need to be protected and raised,” Diana told the news outlet.
However, Diana added, “She needs to be held accountable for her mistakes and monitored very carefully.”
“She spent four years of her life being brainwashed in this horrific ideology of hatred, and she’s tried to incite more and more violence on her countrymen,” Diana said.
In an interview published by The Guardian this week, Muthana claimed she was “brainwashed” as a teen and made “a big mistake” as she pleaded for US officials to let her return home.
In 2014 — the same year Muthana left the US — 40-year-old James Foley, a freelance war correspondent, was executed by ISIS terrorists in Syria two years after being abducted.
